Edit the way Ads are dealt with. The reputation isn't something wrong, it shows you if someone is respected or not. Take me for instance, few posts and some reputation. My posts (I'm so vain right now) would be more trustable than one of those with over 1000 posts but without any reputation point. They would be considered spammers.
I suggest the team who manages the forum recruits some people to accept/deny ads. You should fill in a specific form, and if accepted, it gets posted. So Ad section would become a closed section, and there would be a topic with a form and an email address to mail to. If accepted, a mod posts the exact form into the closed board - people will still be able to see it. And ikr beta testers etc don't have time for this. That's why I ask to recruit one or two people who are busy with it.
Still, this won't prevent people spamming advertisements in other sections.
